MI Jones Pop

Jones Soda Co. launched a special line of soda pops to be made and sold exclusively in Michigan.

The Seattle-based beverage company is partnering with IntrastateDistributors Inc. to bottle Jones Sodas in Detroit. Intrastate distributes several snacks and beverages, including Detroit-based Towne Club pop.

The bottles will feature more than 40 iconic Michigan photos like the Joe Louis fist sculpture in Detroit and the Mackinac Bridge walk, as well as logos of the Made In Detroit clothing brand. Michigan native Kid Rock owns the Made In Detroit brand.

“From the outset of the launch of our brand in 1996 through today, Michigan has been one of our strongest markets. Our Michigan fans and distributors have always been our biggest supporters, and I have never lost sight of that,” Jennifer Cue, Jones Soda CEO, said in a statement.

The special Jones Soda will be available at stores throughout Michigan, including Vince and Joe's Gourmet Markets, Nino Salvaggio International Marketplace, Busch's Fresh Food Market, Holiday Market and ACO Hardware stores.

Fans also can order custom labels by uploading their own photos onto the website.
